This is a really high quality stainless steel bracelet for Christopher Ward watches. These watches have a fascinating modern history having been founded by three men in a boat on the Thames to becoming, arguably, the most significant British watchmaker of the last two decades. Within a year of their launch they were being talked about more in Timezone forum than Rolex themselves. They coined the phrase "Affordable Luxury" and set about competing with the Swiss watch giants. Initially their watches were designed in the Uk and made in China but they made the bold move to switch production to Switzerland, watch capital of the world, so they too could have Swiss movements in their watches. This increased production costs but this was more than made up for by huge increases in revenue and greater interest in their brand as a serious watchmaker. Their first TV advert proclaimed "Ingeniously English, Surprisingly Swiss." As a brand and company they have gone from strength to strength with innovative designs drawing on rich history of watches be they divers or pilots or dress designs. The Trident watch hand is a really delightful design touch.
Now to this superb quality watch bracelet...As with all major brands replacement watch straps are extremely expensive and many customers are looking for a equally high quality replacement watch band for their Christopher Ward watch. This is where this heavy strap comes into play. Extremely stylish with 5 solid steel cross links. It features 316l stainless steel as you would expect lending this strap extreme strength but also meaning that it resists corrosion due to the additives in the steel during production. The strap can be adjusted through removing links via screws. This is easier to do than removing pins but still requires patience and a quality screwdriver - you can always take straight to your jeweller to adjust for you. The clasp is especially strong and well made featuring a double flip lock construction.
